URPG Budget Tournament 2017: Round Two

Round Two has officially started!Your opponents have been rolled and matchups are posted here. Before you battle, your stats on your sign-up must be properly updated! Each round, including this one, will only last for one week. The rules for Round Two are on the official tournament thread! Round Two will officially end on September 4th at 11:59 PM CST! If a battle is ongoing when this ends, it will be allowed to finish if half of the Pokemon are KO'd on one side at the minimum.

Along with these, payments have been slightly tweaked. The payments for this week's battles (which are 6v6) are as follows:
Winner - $5,500 | Loser - $3,000 | Referee - $4,500

weirlind120 vs Ash K. - Voting for the underdog but this battle happening rn anyways soooooooo.
GrayMagicΓ vs Xali - I believe in Xali's ability to defeat the memes.
Monbrey vs Seppe - Ain't no hurricane gonna stop this cowboy.Sou vs Nitro - If she can beat the former champ, she can do anything.
CowboyJake vs Ace Trainer Liam - It's probably gonna be close but I think it's gonna go in Liam's favor.Mikey57 vs Fawkes - something something girlfriend bias Fawkes only just started coming back recently so I feel like he's probably rusty. Also I just believe in Mikey tbh.

Ninjask had the worst luck coming in on Hawlucha to start the match. Hawlucha nearly killed it with Rock Tomb, predicted a protect to let it Tailwind, and then killed it when the second protect failed. Doublade came in to damage control but got Red Carded out, and the Berserk gene Ditto that replaced it also almost got oneshot. Sharpedo came out to deal with Ditto, and while Klefki tried to pull shenanigans, Sharpedo taunted and then let Talonflame in to do the dirty work. Klefki retreated to Doublade but it got WoW'd, then Subbed on the Toxic. At this point Gray saw no chance of victory and forfeited.

Fawkes got a good TWave and Sticky web on metagross-Mega before it dies, too bad no full PAR or the whole game coulda changed. Gyarados dealt with Metagross well, with Reflect Intimidate and EQ, but Pelipper put an end to that plan. Kingdra came in on rain shortly afterward and went to work. Hydro Vortex OHKOd Staraptor, a Waterfall flinch let it kill Mienshao, and it got a absolutely critical Waterfall on Zam that let Mikey send in Ditto to KO with Psyshock. Nidoqueen was forced on a Scarf Psyshock +1 Ditto-Zam and Fawkes called it. GG

Wow! What a match!!!! Great plays from both sides kept this match interesting and exciting! Honestly Liam was looking like he was going to lose after really silly misplays on his part like forgetting to mega evolve Aerodactyl in the face of a Stone Edging Hippowdown or sending Scarf Ditto on Scarf Tyranitar, or Feraligatr sending Waterfall on Ferrothorn, but Venusaur came in and set up two growths in the sun and mowed through CJ's team. CJ's Tyranitar burned it with a Fire Fang, which almost spelled disaster in the end, but it managed to gradually regain health via Synthesis and Giga Drain spam. CJ could have removed Liam's hopes of winning by switching ScarfTar out with Exadrill when it was taking the time to set up a Synthesis, but regardless, Liam had the comeback of the century and for that he gets to go to the next round!
